Not really an answer to the question, but does anyone else think that the phrases “take a shit” and “give a shit” seem swapped? You say you’re gonna take a shit when you are giving one to the toilet, and you say you don’t give a shit when you are unwilling to take shit.
I agree pretty strongly with this generally. The farside has a way of having jokes that are so simple on it’s face that I’m left thinking “surely I’ve missed something?” Usually it turns out that no, in fact, I got the joke and was just vastly underwhelmed.
For whatever reason I found this one to be mildly funny. Couldn’t tell you why. Perhaps it’s the idea that the people who built the atomic bomb weren’t that smart after all?
